Selecting Objects in the Graphics Viewer

 

NOTE 1: When you select a graphics object from System Browser, the Graphics Viewer displays the representative graphic. The selected object is considered the primary selection. The object also displays in the Property Viewer.
NOTE 2: If you click another object in the graphic, that object becomes the secondary selection. As a result, Property Viewer changes its display to correspond to the new selection. System Browser, however, still displays the original, primary selection to show your starting point.
NOTE 3: Double-clicking another object on the graphic makes that object the new primary selection in the Graphics Viewer and System Browser, while the object remains the secondary selection in the Property Viewer.
